Glandwatch 2K7

I've been sleeping a lot (I mean A LOT a lot) during my trip and since I got back, so I'm on Glandwatch 2K7. So far, nothing. Jeffrey is on record as saying that I do not have mono, and also on record as putting me on notice.

For those keeping score, this is not quite as dramatic as The Great Trichinosis Scare of 1996, in which I ate raw pork and Bisquick balls that my roommate's visiting friend had made. I said, can I put these in the micro? She said, sure. Somehow I missed out on how long they were supposed to be in there -- and 30 seconds just didn't cut it. Then I walked around the Times-Picayune newsroom with a hand mirror, asking, "Do my eyes look swollen? I mean really? You're not even looking!"
